How about selling the solidworks files for the CNC chassis, for those do-it yerselffers out there?

Question Old thread bump

I just found this old poll thread and read through all 9 pages.
Very interesting viewpoints expressed and many questions asked.

Now that the Billet car has been completed, driven, and viewed by many, I wonder if the poll is up to date?

I can see the reasons for each version on the poll. It is just a personal preference of what each of us want in a special car.
I see there is a market for each type.

My preference is for the best handling, best brakes, lightest weight car that looks and sounds like 1964. I would be quite content with a steel spaceframe design with the the billet rocker suspension since most of the billet frame is hidden anyway. The round tube (or square, etc.) ladder frame in any size is my least favorite both in design and appearance. I would really like a modern frame that drops the seats lower. Much lower! And offers modern adjustable suspension.

I think it is similar to hot rods and restored cars. Both have their place and both have die-hard fans.
There is a place for an "as-original-as-possible" as well as the most modern interpretation.

To paraphrase: "Build them, and we will come"
To buy them of course!
